Chris Pine is known for his daring sense of style, from pairing leopard print shirts and white Birkenstock sandals to cosplaying an orange Dreamsicle at the San Diego Comic-Con. In Wonder Woman: 1984, ace fighter pilot Steve Trevor finally gets to ditch his muted turn of the century palette for the much more expressive fashion of the '80s.
In a wonderful mirror of the makeunder Diana Prince received in the first movie, a newly resurrected Steve Trevor must dress to blend into the Era of Excess. Through a delightful montage, whereby he ransacks the closet of an engineer, Steve puts on a fashion show. Left to his own devices, Steve shows that he's fearless when it comes to creating his ensembles. Here are all of his outfits, ranked from least appealing to totally rad.
8 I Saw This In A Magazine
No sooner has Steve rolled out of bed with the lovely Diana than he's tucking a leopard print shirt into a pair of slacks. He eventually finds a blazer to accompany it with a prominent brushed pattern and dark grey trim. He scrunches up the sleeves because according to him, he "saw it in a magazine" and it appears to be on-trend.
Diana isn't thrilled with his '80s fashion sense and promptly informs him that she thinks they can do better. What follows is a clever montage that adds a lot of comedic warmth to the movie and conveys the playfulness in their relationship.
7 America's Fanny Pack
Just when viewers think that Steve is going to go for a truly subdued look in a breezy button-down shirt and khaki slacks, he whips out a show-stopping statement piece; a leather fanny pack with the American flag emblazoned on the front.
Despite him being proudly patriotic, Diana decides that this isn't the look for Steve. While the outfit is supposed to allow him to blend in, it also isn't particularly noteworthy and doesn't highlight any of his best features nor seem like it would be good for action sequences.
6 For The Love Of Neon
At one point Steve is simply fed up with trying to please Diana's sense of taste, and throws on a bright yellow tank top, which he immediately begins tucking into his slacks (a man from the 1910s would never have let a shirt just hang out!).
Yellow is most assuredly Chris Pine's color (the actor has a penchant for brighter shades), and the tank top shows off the impressive physique he was known for in the first movie. But it would attract a lot more attention, and not the sort he nor Diana would want.
5 Tantalizing In Tan
One of the better looks that Steve picks out involves pale yellow pleated pants, a green t-shirt with two pockets, and a matching blazer. The blazer combines the yellow of the pants with the pale green of the shirt arranged in a soft checkered pattern.
The ensemble looks like it wouldn't go amiss in a season of Miami Vice, but Diana shoots it down. While it looks perfectly respectable and comfortable, it doesn't exactly seem like Steve's style.
4 Footloose
The last outfit Steve tries on before they head out on the town is a combination of sportswear and seems like both a practical and aesthetically pleasing choice. He pairs dark blue track pants with a zip sweater with white and yellow paneling, as well as a grey fanny pack.
He begs to be able to keep a pair of white Nike trainers, which Diana agrees to because they appear to make Steve ridiculously happy. He doesn't remain in the outfit, but the shoes do end up in the final look he sports throughout the rest of the movie.
3 An Extra In The Music Video For "Bad"
As though selecting an outfit for a Michael Jackson music video, Steve trots out some black and red vinyl parachute pants. He giddily comments on the number of zippers and speculates that people in the '80s are obsessed with pockets that go nowhere.
He pairs the pants with a red and black tank top, with a bold striped graphic print that only serves to exaggerate the V-shape of Pine's frame. It certainly wouldn't help him blend in, except with the crowd of punks he encounters with Diana on their way to the Smithsonian.
2 Pirate Chic
Diana selects one outfit personally for Steve and he loathes it. The shirt is bloused around his waist, the cuffs are unbuttoned and loose, and the belt around his waist is only put in one loop. It's completed with a large knit scarf worn loose around his neck.
Though Steve doesn't find it very chic, it doesn't look too hideous on him. The scarf is also a nice callback to his days as an ace fighter pilot, where scarves were often used in the precarious planes flown in WWI because of how cold the cockpits got at high altitudes.
1 Back In Black
The outfit Steve ends up wearing through most of the film happens to be the best of the bunch. Not being able to go wrong with basic black, he pairs black slacks with a black Members Only jacket, a white t-shirt, and what has become his signature fanny pack.
He also wears the white Nike trainers with the iconic red swoosh logo and has as his one accessory a silver stainless steel Rolex. All in all, it's not only a chic look but an action-oriented ensemble that doesn't look too extreme.
